BrentMc11 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I know that was mainly a play on words but FN played well enough last night to earn a spot on the PS, IMO. Â He reminds me a lot of Saturday with his movement and technique. Â A couple of years in an NFL strength program and he could turn into a valuable man on the 53 man roster.Honestly, I was just playing around. Â He needs a little weight on his bones, but that can happen as we know. Â Jeff was a pudgy little fella when he get here...and he turned out OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time it made a difference was against Denver last year where Havili caught the Spider Y Banana touchdown passAnd then also Havili had a FF in that game too but it wasn't hard to make Holliday fumble in those days. But still I'll give Havili his credit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smonroe Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Don't even remember seeing Price the whole preseasonBurley and definitely Purifoy were known this seasonPurifoy better not get cut I thought Price played pretty well when he was out there. Purifoy looked good, and they're using him as a punt returner, so he may have the leg up. I'm not sure they'll keep two rookies, so maybe Price and Purifoy make the team. Or maybe a vet from the waiver wire.

Bluefire4 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 The only 2 that were remotely surprising were Tony Washington and David Sims. Washington is much more talented than Josh Lenz and the kid from Illinois...Lankford.I also say that FN Lutz is still here...someone must be FN Nutz to keep him I've always felt like Lenz outperformed every other receiver besides the obvious six in training camp but I thought he lost his spot after the fumble. He gets open though. I see him back on the practice squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defjamz26 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Recorded the Saints game, but haven't watched it yet. But Purifoy looks like a solid punt returned so I think he stays.

Superman Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Four more cuts to make by tomorrow.  It will be really interesting in a few days when we cut to 53 and put some guys on IR. Here are the guys I think are locks, assuming health: Offense: 21 spotsQB: Luck, HasselbackRB: Richardson, Bradshaw, HerronWR: Wayne, Hilton, Nicks, Moncrief, Whalen (I think Rogers makes it, too, but I think Whalen has solidified his spot)TE: Allen, Fleener, DoyleFB: No locks, depends on Havili's status, because Harvey hasn't been good, but Havili hasn't playedOL: AC, Mewhort, Holmes, Thornton, GC, Reitz, Louis, Harrison (for the time being, since Holmes' status is uncertain) Defense: 20 spotsDL: Redding, Jones, Chapman, RJF, Kerr (I think Hughes makes it, but can't call him a lock right now)OLB: Werner, Walden, Newsome, Studebaker (Mathis, of course, but doesn't count against the 53 until Week 5)ILB: Freeman, D. Jackson, Sheppard (I think McNary and Muamba make it)CB: Davis, Toler, Butler, Gordy (between Purifoy and Burley here, depending on other roster mechanics)S: Landry, M. Adams, Anderson, Brown ST: 3 spotsAV, McAfee, Overton That's 44 spots that I think are virtually sewn up. Leaves nine openings, probably for a FB, two OL, a WR, a DL, and a mix of three LBs and/or DBs (and one of those DBs should be a returner, which is why I lean toward Purifoy). One of those linemen spots are a luxury; I think carrying nine is ideal, but our starting center is nicked up. And maybe an extra RB. The 10th OL and 6th WR are stressing the roster.

Superman Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I think Nixon makes the OL too. I'm mixed on Nixon, because he hasn't played and isn't PUP eligible.

JMO. It's not that they are so far and away better than the other guys at their positions, but given their role and our roster mechanics, and their preseason performance, I think they make it. I'm sure I'm wrong on some. As for Sheppard, if it were about contracts, I'd cut him. Having A. Jackson or Studebaker at that spot would save the team nearly a million in cap space. If it's about performance, I think he's been good enough to keep. No, not special, but solid, especially assuming he's a reserve / early down player. Moving Studebaker to ILB, or having him in a hybrid role, would make it easier to keep another pass rusher like Cam Johnson. I think Johnson is probably next on the list.
